Beautiful body of water, but the track along the west of the lake was flooded and therefore impassable in March 2026... impossible to go around. So be careful.

My phone was dead, and the tour was 38 km long with 1,100 meters of elevation gain. The terrain was very wet and snowy. In dry weather, the hike must be even more enjoyable, but you need to be in good physical condition; there are some really nice sections with beautiful views.

very pretty views all along the D'Ain river, the Brotteaux lake in Priay and the Longeville lake. Beautiful course, by magnificent shaded paths along the river. Very calm place.
